This thesis summarizes the milestones achieved in building a thermoelectric generator (TEG) device using a novel p- and n- type 2-D thermoelectric material called Ge/SiGe superlattice; which was grown by low energy plasma- enhanced chemical vapour deposition (LEPECVD). It begins by describing in a nutshell the advance…

In modern pressurized water reactors (PWR), the substitution of nickel-base Alloy 600 and its associated filler metals Alloy 82 and 182 by Alloys 690, 52 and 152 with higher chromium content has improved the integrity of the main components in the primary circuit. However, metallurgical changes during thermal ageing o…

Three-dimensional topological insulators are fascinating materials with insulating bulk yet metallic surfaces that host highly mobile charge carriers with a spin orientation locked to the propagation direction. Such spin- velocity coupling facilitates the exciting possibility to launch spin- polarized charge currents…

Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit zwei verschiedenen Schwerpunkten. Einerseits wurde im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit das Auftreten höherer nichtlinearer Beiträge mittels mechanischer Spektroskopie für Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA) untersucht. Dafür wurde in Anlehnung an dielektrische Messungen bei großen Fe…

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy allows one to study and analyze the structure, motions and interactions of a broad variety of molecules. However, this technique has a major inconvenience: its low sensitivity, which therefore often results in the use of highly concentrated samples in order to observe tiny…

Modelling of hydrogen assisted stress corrosion cracking (HASCC) within the framework of mechanics is very important for its control and avoidance. The main focus of this study is to develop suitable approach for modelling and analysis of stable crack growth through high strength steels under HASCC. A new strategy bas…

Often a surface sensitive analytical technique in combination with sample erosion by inert ion sputtering is used for compositional in-depth analysis of solid state samples. Layer by layer the sample gets eroded and then the composition of the actual surface is estimated. The elemental detection limits can be increase…

Laminated bamboo could be a promising material when it comes to large span roofing structures where often truss structures are adopted. It is assumed that connection design used for timber trusses can also be applied in laminated bamboo trusses. For this research truss nodes with slotted-in steel plates are considered…

Self-healing materials have attracted significant attention from researchers during last decades. However, self-healing materials cannot find practical applications yet due to a weak mechanical strength. Recently, it was identified that an acrylic elastomer, VHB 4910, has an excellent self-healing ability accompanied…
